Loosing Weight – Step 1

I have always been on the heavier side. So it is really not a big deal for me !!!

Somewhere down the line, my heavy weight always had an impact on my self confidence. It was tough not to think about it, every single time I went out for shopping. It was tough not to think about it, every single time I saw a friend wear a pencil skirt. It was tough not to think about it, every time I ate. Basically, somewhere down the line, it was just tough for me not to think about my weight.

I know, loosing weight needs a lot of determination and efforts. It is a combination of right nutritious food and right amount of exercise. Added to it, your metabolism rate and your hormones.

PCOD literally screwed my life, knowingly or unknowingly, my lifestyle contributed to the same. AT one point of time, I had to literally quit everything, just to take care of my body and trust me that was the best decision ever. It is important that once again, when I am back at my heaviest self, that I concentrate on my body.

Today, when I am writing this blog, I am 5 months post partum with my second one. As I had a C-section, a workout before 6 months is out of question. The best I could do , as I am a non- breastfeeding mother is to control my diet.

For some strange reason, I developed this habit of mid night munching. I started eating junk food, not due to hunger, but due to a wierd craving. Anything unhealthy, I desperately wanted to eat it, anything crispy, just because it made me sadistically happy. One fine day when I checked my weight, I had gained about 3 more kgs and reached at an all time high of 94 kgs. That was the day, I decided to take control of my life.

Though I cannot workout, I can atleast control my portions a little bit. I went back to my water therapy and today as I write this, I am celebrating my one month full of reduced junk food. Yes, I completely stopped my mid-night munching and that has made me completely happy now. I can actually feel a bit lighter and much more happier I can say. As now I sleep atleast 30 to 45 mins earlier than usual. I feel somewhat lighter compared to before.

Though there is still a long way for me to go. I am happy about the first step that I took.

I recently came across, different profile of Instagram Mom Influencers and also read about how sharing your workout routine on social media, forces you to do your workout everyday. Obviously, because you need content for the same. Though there is no visible difference in me, but I am happy and I desperately need a workout buddy. Writing is my workout buddy.

If you would please comment on this post, it would motivate me a lot. I love to live one day at a time and celebrate every small achievement in my life. Now, this time not by eating but by writing.
